Mr. Smith is fifty years old. He began to teach in a middle school twenty-six years ago. He works
hard and always comes to his office on time. He expects his students to be honest and is strict with them.
Some of his students become famous people, but they still remember him and often write to him. Of course
he is proud of it.
This term he began to teach Grade One. Some of the new students were told about him, but the others
didn't know him well. He told them how to be an honest person. He gave them several examples and said,
"I hate telling a lie."
Before class was over, he told all his students to finish Exercise 8 in Unit 1. The next morning, as soon
as he came into the classroom, he asked, "Who's finished Exercise 8 in Unit 1?"
A few students put up their hands. He shook his head and said, "Open your workbooks and see
whether there's Exercise 8 in Unit 1 or not?"
The students had a look at their workbooks and their faces turned red at once.

Have you wondered how your pets are feeling? When your dog wags (来回摇摆) its tail, does that
mean it is happy? A new app called Happy Pets can tell you what’s going on.
The app uses artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze (分析) the facial(面部的) expressions of cats and
dogs. Then it can tell you what kind your pet is and how it is feeling. It can show the five most common
feelings — happiness, anger, neutral (中性的) feelings, sadness and fear.
Researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia developed the app. The key technology used
in the app is facial recognition, a common use of AI. We can unlock our mobile phones or enter train
stations with facial recognition readers. But this is the first time that the technology has been used for
animals.
The app’s AI was first taught to recognize a picture of an animal. Then, it was taught to recognize the
facial features of cats and dogs. Next came the most important step — teaching it to detect (察觉) emotions
(情感) according to certain facial features. For instance, if a dog closes its eyes and mouth while changing
the position of its ears, this means the dog is scared. To master this skill, the AI program “saw” and “read”
thousands of example images.
Are the results correct? The researchers think they are believable since the app has been tested many
times. Interestingly, they have found that cats are harder to read than dogs. In the future, the app might also
be able to analyze a pet’s body to make its readings more correct.
根据短文内容选择最佳答案。
31．The underlined word “ recognition” in the passage means ________ in Chinese.
A．承认 B．识别 C．认识
32．What is the app Happy Pets used for?
A．Playing games with pets.
B．Training pets to remember faces.
C．Telling us how pets feel.
33．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．How the app’s AI was “trained”.
B．How people use the app.
C．What certain facial features mean.34．Which is TRUE according to the passage about the app Happy Pets?
A．It is part of a student project.
B．It uses facial recognition technology.
C．It works better on cats.
35．What is the passage mainly about?
A．It is written to show how to recognize animals’ feelings.
B．It is written to show how to care for animals.
C．It is written to describe a new app.

满分10分）
I still remember the days I spent in the bookstores. When I was a child, bookstores are the only
source (来源) of all kinds of books, even exercising books. Bookstores have been a symbol of my happy
childhood. 36 ． But now many bookstores have closed and that trend (趋势) is continuing today. Many
owners are taking some measures to attract people and keep their bookstores. 37 ． However, as the recent
survey shows, these measures seem to be of little help.
There are three main reasons for this trend. First, increasingly more people have given up reading
habit over the past ten years. The second reason is the development of the Internet. 38 ． Third, among the
fewer readers who continue reading paper books, many of them buy books online.
A city without bookstores is not culturally rich. 39 ． We couldn’t stop bookstores from disappearing.
40 ． They were an important part of the city’s history.
根据短文内容，将下面选项还原到文中空白处，使短文内容完整、通顺，每个选项只能用一次。
A．They always brought me great joy and opened my eyes.
B．But we should remember the role that bookstores have played.
C．Some of the bookstores provide leisure (休闲) activities and coffee houses inside.
D．Bookstores are more than places selling books, and they are cultural palaces.
E.Many people who continue reading have changed from reading paper books to e-books.

第四部分 写作（共二节，满分35分）
第一节 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题(共5小题，计10分)
A little stream ran down from a high mountain far, far away through many villages and forests, until it
reached a desert. The stream then thought, “I’ve been through countless difficulties. I should have no
problem crossing the desert!” But as she started her journey, she found herself slowly disappearing into the
sand. After many tries, she still failed and was very unhappy. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean in the end,”
she said sadly to herself.
At this time, a deep voice came, “If a breeze (微风)can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the
voice of the desert. But the little stream replied, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.” “That’s
because you can’t give up what you are. If you like to do it, and let yourself evaporate (蒸发) into the
breeze, it can take you across, and you can reach the ocean,” said the desert.
“Give up what I am now and disappear into the breeze? No! No!” The little stream could not acceptthis idea. After all, she had never experienced anything like it before.
“The breeze can carry the vapor (水蒸气) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a
river again to continue its course,” explained the desert very patiently.
“And whether you are a river or vapor, your nature never changes,” continued the desert. Hearing this,
the little stream rushed into the open arms of the breeze, which carried her to the next stage of her life.
The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream.
66．Where did a little stream run from?
67．What did the little stream think before she got to the desert?
68．What happened to the little stream when she got to the desert?
69．Did the little stream accepted the desert’s advice at first?
70．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 mean?
